Wow! Every time I have Riesling trocken I always wonder why I don’t drink more of it. Nose of peach and lime with wet gravel. Palate is more of the nose with a biting acidity of citrus. Beautiful flowers are mixed in with salty wet rocks! Finish lingers for a minute or more. Ideal with food but also a great aperitif. — 5 years ago
Ripe apple & apricot with a touch of hay. Vibrant acidity balanced well with ripe fruit and a hint of flinty minerality. Typical Rheingau and ultra drinkable. — 6 years ago

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra. Our guest conductor Moritz Gnann is leading WAGNER (Siegfried Idyll), MOZART (Piano Concerto No. 27 in B-flat) with the outstanding Paul Lewis on piano and SCHUMANN (Symphony No. 3, Rhenish).
Peach juice, Lemon zest, wow Lemon oil like I've never tasted before, white flowers crushed in a limestone mortar with a granite pestle, aromas of late Spring rain on new flowers growing in the midst of a granite scree slope whilst someone had been running around squeezing Lemons beforehand, crazy. Looking forward to seeing how this develops in the coming days, too interesting to finish tonight.
24hr Update: Very tropical fruit-ish on the nose, still with lemon, lemon, lemon. The lemon oil notes have backed down on the palate. My wife thinks it's limes, it's definitely lemons, she's crazy.
48hr Update: Acidity and lemon oil characteristics are beginning to subside, probably 30% less than day one, just a stellar bottle! — 6 years ago

Kept me on my feet, lots going on. Astringent, tannic, structured. Some tangerine. Strawberry rhubarb jam prevailed on day 3. — 2 years ago
